You filled all the space of the form/Window?
Make it bigger.
If you want the user to be able to scroll through more controls than the form/window can display at a given size, then you first needed to add some sort of scrollable container (Like a panel) - THEN - added the controls into that scrollable container. Scroll bars don't just appear automagically.

This is not form Windows Forms, but for Windows Phone 7. I think the OP is dragging controls to the phone simulator surface and has run out of room.
@OP: The thing is, there is no "room". You shouldn't be using the drag and drop tools, there's a button in Visual Studio where you can split between design and xaml markup.
Just copy and paste your XAML how many times you need.
<StackPanel> <Button>Hello</button> </StackPanel>
"Ok, let's add one more button."
<StackPanel> <Button>Hello</button> <Button>Hello</button> </StackPanel>
See?
